Don’t be anxious about ANYTHING… but….

Phil 4:6: “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.”

 

Easier said than done sometimes, right?? We read things like that and it can be tempting to think, “well, that’s enough for today, can’t do that” as we close the book.

If we stopped only at “Do not be anxious about anything,” it may be easy to give up because it would just seem too hard.

When we go further though, we learn HOW to do that.

Prayer and petition, WITH THANKSGIVING.

Are you stressed? Take it to God! Let Him know what your burden is. Be specific about your need (and make sure you are clearly identifying WHAT you need, not just what you want. What is your overall goal? What is God’s goal for you?). Find promises in scripture that apply to your struggle, so you can pray those promises back to God and claim them.

THANK God in advance for how He is going to work, because HE WILL. And He’ll do it in ways we can’t even imagine. We don’t need to worry about it. He’s got this!

Today, I challenge you to think about whatever is stressing you right now, seek out scripture to sharpen your sword (read it out loud! the spoken Word can be powerful!) and thank God for how He is already working in those situations.

Here’s your printable verse for the week!
